This disk was found in Genesee County, West of Rochester NY. It is found amongst the farmland that makes up the area between the towns of Elba and Byron. The disk is located in a concrete column that has been disturbed from grade. The column is about 1.5 feet in height, and tilted at a 30 degree angle from the ground.
